In the game "Messenger", even without considering Foundation Establishment and above, just by observing the one to three-turn Messengers, Yan Qing noticed one situation: defense outweighs offense.
The first item for most Messengers is a defensive token. A Messenger without a defensive token is equivalent to a super mortal, no matter how powerful, like a bubble easily burst; it is essential to have a defensive token for a Messenger to truly become 'non-human', distancing himself from the majority of worldly dangers.
As the level increases, the strength of offensive tokens struggles to keep up with the enhancement of defensive tokens. For instance, the Liang Kingdom's widely equipped Three-Turned Rare Token, the Heart-Protecting Mirror, can defend up to 2800 damage, whereas the most relied upon core token of the seasoned third-turn Helan Que, the Soul-Breaking Spear, can only deal a maximum instant output of ten times the base attack, 700 damage.
